Reflections

I thought today about the predictability of people and wondered whether I would live to be surprised by anyone. Essentially we all have the same reactions to life when it hits us. I thought today would have been different....that today would have represented an opportunity to glide on a wave of new beginnings and throw to the wayside my experience of last week......unfortunately this was not so as I dealt with individuals who seem committed to being cogs in the path of development.

I have never had a difficulty with people being people...I recognise that we are all different but similar and that as people we have good moments and bad, but it saddens me to think that people could lie without need and impact so greatly the careers of others at the drop of a hat. The responsibility of being in a managerial position is far gerater than giving you an oportunity to revel in the moment of having attained power. It is about the contribution you can make and the recognition of the heavy responsibility you are now charged with including shaping the minds of those you lead.

Personally I have never agreed with one telling lies. That's why I speak so frankly about my feelings because at the end of the day I look at the many things that exist just to burden your mind and body, so why clutter your system with a lie that one day will come to the light. Worse as adults there is no need to lie unless its to save someone hurt and pain...we should be able to live and speak with each other without the need to put another's integrity at risk just because you possess the power so to do.

I will not ventilate the issue further at this time but I am hurt, and I can only hope that my reputation precedes me in this regard and people, the people who need to know, are fully aware of the real me....and that I am an upfront individual.
